Me: I love the Fourth of July! I live in a small town and every Fourth of July our city puts on a big celebration. During the day, there is usually a parade. Once the sun sets, everyone meets at the park/lake for a concert put on my the Symphony. Before the fireworks and concert begin, there is a flyover done by the pilots from the Navy Base. A few years ago my husband was the lead pilot in the flyover! This was my favorite Fourth of July memory!

Oda May: Do you celebrate with cupcakes, cake pops, or just plain old cake?

Me: We (I mean me) usually celebrate with cake! My preference would be chocolate! The bigger the piece the better!

Oda May: Speaking of cake, do you prefer a corner piece or a center piece when eating cake? Or do you not like to discriminate?

Me: I like corner pieces because they have more frosting!

Oda May: If you could patchwork bomb a spot in your town, where would you choose and why?

Me: I would cover our City Hally with patchwork! It is located in the center of downtown and was originally built in 1915. The building recently underwent renovations to preserve its original architecture.

In my eyes, those grand steps would look beautiful covered in bright and bold patchwork!

Here is what it would look like with a little bit of

Simply Color by V and Co.

and

Odds And Ends by Cosmo Cricket:

Oda May: If you could have a quilt shop spree, which items would you snag off the shelf?

Me:That is an easy question! I would grab one jelly roll, layer cake, and charm pack of each fabric line just to be on the safe side!

Thanks for the giveaway and recipe! My current favorite precut is the charm pack, but only because I'm in love with the current project I'm using them for! I'm sure whatever I use for my next project will quickly become my favorite then too!

LOVED your patchwork bomb job!!! I know I just told the Kramer gals that I love the FLIRT line, but then I keep looking through the fabrics and the Mod Century Fat Quarter Bundle is just screaming to be purchased and stitched up! How ever do people decide which fabric to use???

I love layer cakes - gives me options of either cutting them into charms or using the 10" squares - always tend to select the wonderful bright and colorful new lines of fabric - give punch to any project. Thanks for this opportunity from Judy C

I really do enjoy Moda's jelly rolls. Just easy to work with and there are so many quilt patterns that uses jelly rolls now. Just the right size and makes quilting so much fun. Really do need to win a copy of that book now. Now that it is fall and the leaves are turning, I can see myself quilting a lot of projects from that awesome book. Thank you for the chance to win and your recipe is definitely a keeper.

I love pre-cuts. The charm packs are my favorite. Just little bits of every color - I love to flip thru them and plan quilts - they make great wallhangings to practice a full-size quilt idea on. Of course fat quarter bundles are ever so much fun too.

Which pre-cut size I like depends on the pattern I'm using or what I've designed. I love the charm packs for Miss Rosie's Schnibbles but other squares may need a different size. Probably the best all-around size is a fat quarter pack. Your recipe sounds yummy!!!

My favorite would have to be fat quarters, I love having enough fabric with someadded background to see how many projects that I can come up with to use the fabricto get the most mileage out of it. It does keep me entertained for a bit and it keepat it, until every bit has been put to good use. Thanks for the great recipe, andthe chance to win.

I love fat quarter bundles. Since I seldom buy fabric with a specific project in mind, having FQs gives me flexibility to do a variety of things. Right now, if I could own a FQ bundle of the new line Simply Color I would be over the moon.

LOL I love the way you think!~ I would try to snag one of each too. :-) I do love FQ's though, and layer cakes.... and jelly rolls! LOL See? They are all my favorites! Thanks for the chance! Have a great weekend!

My favorites are fat quarter bundles. Preferably the ones with all of the fabrics. lol. I feel like I have more options that way, plus I have dies to cut pretty much any of the other precut shapes in my big shot pro.

My favorite precut is the fat quarter bundle. Although I do like the charm packs too. with the fat quarter I have a bigger piece and I have one from each of the designs in that line of fabric, and it is MORE fabric.

I like the charm pacs. This way I can see all the colors and patterns of a line and then decide which to buy yardage of. I also like the little 2.5" squares, called Candy i think? Anyway cuts down on the cutting which is my least favorite part of quilting.

My favorite pre-cut... I love fat quarters-- because there's plenty of fabric to make a big variety of projects... but I love charm packs-- I've used them before and they're so fun and match perfectly and make for super-duper quick and beautiful projects... and I've never tried a layer cake or jelly roll, but have seen SO many wonderful projects online made using them-- I need to give them a try! :-) So, I guess, I don't have a favorite-- they're ALL my favorites! ;-) Thanks so much for the chance to win!!!

Just to make it easy, I want to go on the spree with you! It would be so much easeir if you would pick up two of everything, one for you and one for me! I would love fat quarter bundles, but tend to pick up charm packs... I have a nice collection of them! They are great impulse purchases!

I love fat quarter bundles! You get to see a lot of the overall pattern & you can use them so many ways.Thanks for the recipe. I've made poke cakes before but not using caramel sauce. Definately going to try this one.Judy

Thanks for the opportunity to win the book. I love your picture of City Hall with the fabric - really dresses it up! I like jelly rolls the best, I think - although they're each handy in their own way. Thanks again....

I have bought charm packs (inexpensive thrills, lol) and jelly rolls. I've used some... I now really love FQ packs. I would love to try something with a layer cake, but haven't bought one yet. Funny about decorating town hall!

My favorite pre-cut is the Jelly Rolls! I love to decorate with them ... I mean, who could ever unroll them when they are so cute just as they come?!? Thanks for the chance to win ... and I love what your City Hall would look like if you decorated it!

I would love fat quarter bundles, but due to the cost, have never owned one! I buy charm packs (and recently signed up for a mini charm club) to share the love over as many favorites as possible and splurge on a jelly roll for my very favorites.

HI! I have not used Charms yet. I love the Jellyrolls and Fat quarters. There is so much one can do with them, but, it really is the colors and patterns that are put together in the jellyrolls that absolutely catch my eye! I fall in love with quilting all over a million times because of the divine colors of the jellyrolls.
